Barcelona ‘studying’ highly-regarded youngster’s sale, as Bayer Leverkusen join the fray | OneFootball

La Liga giants Barcelona are giving consideration to parting with an up-and-coming member of the club’s midfield ranks this summer.

That’s according to Diario Sport, who point towards Noah Darvich as the player in question.

Darvich, for those not familiar with his name, is a versatile 18-year-old midfielder, who generally operates in an advanced role through the middle.

The German is currently plying his trade with Barca Atlètic, for whom he featured on 25 occasions in league play this season.

Following the January departure of Unai Hernández for Saudi Arabia, Darvich was drafted into Barcelona’s Champions League squad for the 2nd half of the term, a regular in first-team training over recent months as a result.

And though he remains held in high regard by many behind the scenes in Catalunya’s capital, a summer departure for Darvich could yet be on the cards.

As per Sport:

‘Noah Darvich, one of the strongest international bets that Barça made for its youth football, may leave the club this summer. The German international in youth categories has important offers to play in the Budesliga and Barça are studying an exit that is good for all parties.’

Citing Kicker, Sport point towards interest in the midfield starlet on the part of both Stuttgart, and Bayer Leverkusen.
